Which wire did you solder? How did you get it to light up the tires? My Caddy moves, but it doesn't have much off the line snap. Not enough to spin tires.

I have a 2012 Caddy Hybrid that my wife drives 15 miles a day and the Speed limit never goes over 45mph. My regen seems to work just fine. When we were in Maine visiting family we got better gas mileage (22mpg) going to town and back on back roads. But back here in SWFL we struggle to get 17mpg on her daily commute. Any tips, or thoughts? The main road is 45mph with a ton of stoplights. If I had the money and know-how I'd love to gut the battery pack and load it up with Lithium batteries and covert it to a Plug-in hybrid.
